It is such a shame!!

Just another marker in the book that the Factory does not "get it"

Astak "Got it"
Apple may have started it when they broke the "Beige" mold, years ago.
Just walk into any store selling modern portable (and not so portable) Electronics.
Phones, Laptops, Media Players, even Headsets:

Black is so Henry Ford
The Factory (and Astak) need to come up with another way to Badge (brand) the products that does not require custom silk screening of the cases.
That is what requires big lots of each color for a single distributor to keep the price point.
2 tone might work.

The Back and Battery cover always the same (a Neutral color), with only the front, being the custom color.
